The 2025 Players Championship was the 51st edition of The Players Championship (the 48th as a standalone tournament), held from March 13–16 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. Rory McIlroy earned his second Players title in a three-hole aggregate playoff against J. J. Spaun after both finished at 12-under-par 276. A four-hour weather delay during the final round forced the playoff into Monday, marking the tournament’s first playoff since 2015. Two-time defending champion Scottie Scheffler placed eight strokes behind in a tie for twentieth.
The event offered a record-high purse of $25 million, including a $4.5 million winner’s share. The field of 144 players met various PGA Tour eligibility criteria, with the cut falling at one-under 143. In the second round, Justin Thomas tied the TPC Sawgrass course record with a score of 62.
